Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not classified
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- Acute toxicity testing of 5-Fluoro-2-nitrobenzoic acid methyl ester in the Wistar rat yield a median lethal dose above 2000 mg/kg bw in male and female animals. After application of 2000 mg/kg bw neither death nor symptomes occurred.
